Our Mission

Helping Every Family Discover God,
His Love, and His Ways!

Our Culture

At Crosswinds, we seek to cultivate a community of:

Encouragement – Being specific and generous in our praise and celebrating as a community and individually when people do well.

Productive Feedback – Celebrating victories and identifying areas for constant improvement of our lives and His mission.

Redemption – Creating a grace-filled environment where the broken become whole again, and the old becomes new through an atmosphere of forgiveness and hope through Jesus Christ.

Creative Communication – Finding innovative ways to communicate the gospel in relevant ways to each generation, gender, personality style, and people group.

Training – We seek to create a leadership pipeline to build up people from the youngest to the oldest to make disciples who then train others to be disciples who build up others who do the same.

A Healthy Community – We seek to be people who are honest about our strengths and weakness. We seek to excel in the gifts graced to each of us. We celebrate the diversity of gifts that compliment us and lead to a healthy growing church family.

Our Vision

“We exist to create a movement of the gospel in our local community by training disciples who then train other disciples that multiply across our region seeding new healthy churches.”

About Crosswinds

Crosswinds Church is a Christ-Centered community in Plainfield Illinois, located at the corner of Route 59 & 143rd Street. It is a place where you can discover who God is and live out your faith in uplifting and practical ways. We believe the Bible teaches that we don’t come to church but that we are the church, so we teach our members to have an impact on their families, workplaces, schools, community, and beyond. The church was started by ordinary people who God has used to do great things to show love and kindness in Plainfield, our county, our region, our state, and other countries..

Our goal is not just for you to come and visit us but for you to take what you learn about God at Crosswinds and share that with someone else to encourage them on their journey. God has a wonderful design for our lives, but life can be hard and we live in a broken world. We all need help and encouragement on our journey, so we seek to give people practical tools. These tools not only help them find peace and joy in their everyday lives, but help others to do the same. We are not perfect. The Bible says no one but Jesus is perfect, but we hope you will come and grow with us. We hope you will help us to make our lives and the lives of others better by discovering the hope that is found in Jesus Christ!

John 1:35-39 | Mon, Sep 10, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

Facebook and Twitter and LinkedIn and all the other online social networks have created nearly a billion fans and followers of celebrities and politicians and athletes and companies – and even churches and pastors. In this message, Pastor John looks at the first followers of Jesus and asks, are you a fan of Jesus, or are you His follower?

Ten Hot Topics: #1 - Prayer

John 14:12-14 | Sun, Sep 02, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

Jesus lived a life of prayer and he taught a life of prayer. In this message on prayer, Pastor John looks at how Jesus connected prayer anchored in God's glory with the kinds of works that result in faith in Jesus.

Ten Hot Topics: #2 - Discipleship

John 15:1-8 | Sun, Aug 26, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

God's first command to us in the Bible is to be fruitful. That includes more than having children. It includes what you produce, your output, your character. In Jesus' words to His disciples, He reminds us of this same command and that fruitful disciples bring glory to His Father.

Ten Hot Topics: #3 - Leadership

1 Corinthians 4:1-2 | Sun, Aug 19, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

Leadership books send the message that the predominant attitude among business leaders is, “I’m great…and you’re not.” The Christian leader must take his or her cues from Scripture. In this message, Pastor John looks at the characteristic attitude of leadership needed in the church to honor Christ as our Master.

Ten Hot Topics: #4 - Evangelism

Acts 1:1-11 | Sun, Aug 12, 2012 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Hot Topic #5 “Evangelism”…Is it a hot topic for you? It is a hot topic for Jesus! Pastor Ken preaches today from Acts 1:1-11. We are to be his witness. Being a witness is something we are not just something we do. If Jesus has taken you from eternal death to eternal life you are a witness of that life and it is to be shared with a dying world. Be encourage by this message to fulfill God’s purpose for you in this world.

Ten Hot Topics: #5 - Worldview

John 17 | Sun, Aug 05, 2012 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In today’s message on Biblical world view Pastor Ken questions whether Christians need a worldview or instead a heavenly view of the world. The text for today is in John chapter 17 where Jesus shares. “They are not of the world, just as I am not of this world.” We are not worldling but citizens of Heaven.

Ten Hot Topics: #6 - Apathy

2 Timothy 1:1-12 | Sun, Jul 29, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

This may be a sermon you care nothing about! But apathy should have no place in the life of a Christian. In this message, Pastor John explores Paul's words that challenge us to fan into white-hot flame the gift of God in every Christian.

Ten Hot Topics: #7 - Marriage

Hebrews 13:4 | Sun, Jul 22, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

The NY Times declared not long ago that we live in a “post-marital society.” Marriage is on the decline. Divorce is on the incline. Cohabitation is up. Same-sex marriage advocates want to redefine marriage. For the glory of God and for the good of yourself and your community, be in sync with God about marriage and out of sync with the culture. In this message, Pastor John shares how marriage can be held in honor by all.

Ten Hot Topics: #8 - Relevance

Psalm 16 | Sun, Jul 15, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

Much of the Western culture says that Christianity is "boring, untrue, and irrelevant." And yet, in many other places in the world, people are turning to Christ in record numbers. In this message, Pastor John looks at the psalmist's declaration of the relevance of God for all people.

Ten Hot Topics: #9 - Homosexuality

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 | Sun, Jul 08, 2012 | Pastor John Stillman

There is a rising social pressure to accept same-sex marriage and homosexuality. The middle-ground is disappearing. Where will Christians take their stand? In this message, Pastor John says that we must not tinker with the truth, but get back to it.
